Kerry's Story
hi all,
i left connecticut in 1982 and headed for alaska.
i arrived in washington state and employed myself on a crabbing boat, so if you have seen the discovery channel on 'most dangerous catch' well' i did that on the bering sea for 4 months.. wow.. that was work.
then by plane to anchorage, then train to ferry alaska, where i homesteaded, built my home,carrying single sheets of plywood 3.3 miles till my home was built.
my first winter saw 67below with no wind. now thats cold.. but it was a fun time. I spent many years running heavy equipment at various gold mines..yes..ive seen thousands of ounces of gold still
in the...Expand for more
sluice box and touched it.. i discovered i dont suffer from gold fever..
now here i am 24 yrs later, working for denali national park 15 miles south of healy, alaska as their head electrician. all i can say is... life is good.
i left montville high in 73 and joined the airforce specializing in electronics and digital equipment (the beginning of computers using logic devices).
I am quite content with a wife and 4 yr old son now living in the center of the big town of healy ak. i serve my community by election to the fireboard as vice-chair, and am presently building an indoor swimming pool ..(not many places to swim up here).
